SPECIAL FEATURES
Duraflex - Plastoid is the material of choice for the average Trooper. The Emergence has no interest in tradition however, and uses much more resistant and durable Duraflex
Neural Network - In todays Galaxy, Radiowaves are like a Protocol Droid using a tincan and string. Helmets are equipped with built-in wireless Neural Routers. These connect to every other Helmet in the same Squadron and allow for immediate communication via thought alone
Vocoder - Deep and Artifical, the Vocoder in every helmet serves to scare and intimidate
Strengths:
Anti-Blaster - Using Duraflex, UCRA-S is resistant to most blaster fire
Neural Network - Much like a Hive-Mind, every Helmet comes with an integrated wireless Neural Router. These are linked to the Helmet's respective Squadron and allows for instant communication via thought
Mobile - The use of Duraflex allows UCRA-S Armour to be mobile and resilient
360/UV/IR - UCRA-S Helmets are equipped with different displays, such as Infra-red and Ultraviolet, allowing them to see through visual blockers and darkness. The back of the Helmet is also fitted with a Microcamera, providing an almost 360 view and feeding it to the HUD
Stimulated CNT - The arms are, in essence, a duraflex sleeve with Carbon Nanotubes coiled around. These CNT's are stimulated constantly, according to the muscular strain the combatant is exerting. When strength is needed, the wearer's own efforts are greatly boosted by the tubes covering their arms
Weaknesses
Soft-spots - Most of the Armour Focus is on the body and Head. Mobility points consisting of the Thighs and Neck are covered only by Armourweave and are vulnerable to most attacks
Temperature - Although the wiring inside is EMP/Ion Hardened, being Superconductive, it is vulnerable to intense heat. If exposed to an environment above 100 degrees celsius, Superconductivity will be lost, reducing the electronics to a Copper standard. This will inevitably have a domino effect as the armour's power systems are built around Superconductivity. Normal use after Superconductivity is lost will melt the wiring and render the vast majority of the armour's functions useless, reducing it to nothing more than a heavy duraflex suit.
Pls don't stab - The UCRA-S is overlayed with ultrachrome, giving it defence against slashing strikes from a lightsaber. However, if stabbed head-on, the Ultrachrome will be melted and the blade will go through.
Description
The battle standard for Avilok Combatants, the UCRA-S is designed with one goal in mind; Fight those with the Force. The Carbon Nanotube arms allow for unrivalled strength in swing and punch while the Ultrachrome layer allows for rudimentary resistance to glancing and slashing lightsaber strikes. The Duraflex helmet and armour pieces grant the wearer nigh invulnerability to small and medium arms fire. And as if those with their senses bolstered by the Force needed any assistance, the Helmet comes with vision settings that allow visibility through most standard blockers, alongside a rear-view display.
But nothing is perfect. The Duraflex/Ultrachrome armour pieces are not a blanket. Mobility points had to be incorporated to allow for ease of movement that the flexible Duraflex could not grant. These mobility points are simply sections of the armour without plate. Instead these sections, being the Upper Legs and Neck are bridged only by armourweave. A well placed shot to either of these locations could kill or immobilise the wearer.
Owing to the Emergence's feverish pursuit of Technology and the Avilok's technocentric nature, the UCRA-S is a technological powerhouse wired by only the most advanced circuits. Room Temperature Superconducting Electronics allow the armour's HUD and Stimulant systems to operate with almost zero delay or interruption. Yet, while this circuitry is EMP and Ion hardened, its only bane is Temperature. As temperatures rise, the Superconducting efficiency lowers. Beyond 100 Degrees, Superconductivity is lost, and the armour will inevitably lose its HUD and CNT Stimulant systems
